The Bridgton Art Guild Inc.
The Bridgton Art Guild Inc. is a nonprofit organization based in Bridgton, Maine. It was granted tax-exempt status in September 2008 and operates under the guiding principle of promoting the arts and supporting local artists in the greater Lakes Region and the Sacopee Valley[3][4].
Mission and Activities
The Guild serves as a community and artist cooperative that fosters an environment for the appreciation and creation of visual arts. Its primary activities include managing a local gallery space, organizing community events, and providing educational opportunities via classes and workshops[1][3].
Gallery 302
One of the Guild's main initiatives is Gallery 302, a juried artist cooperative established in 2003. This gallery offers local artists a venue to exhibit and sell their original works, which include paintings, pottery, photography, fabric art, wood sculpture, jewelry, and millinery[1]. Gallery 302 also hosts monthly artist receptions and showcases, contributing to the vibrant cultural scene in Bridgton.
The Burr Chase Arts Center
The Guild houses the Burr Chase Arts Center, named in honor of John Burleigh “Burr” Chase, a former president of the Guild's Board of Directors. This center was established following Burr Chase's passing in 2014, with an endowment created by his family to support art education and make art accessible to all ages. The endowment notably provides a 20% discount on classes for Bridgton Art Guild members[2].
Community Initiatives
In addition to its gallery and educational programs, the Bridgton Art Guild organizes community events such as the annual Art in the Park held on the third Saturday in July. The Guild also awards scholarships to local students pursuing careers in the arts, furthering its mission to foster artistic growth and development within the community[1].
Grants and Support
The Bridgton Art Guild supports artistic endeavors through financial grants. For example, it awarded $1,000 in grants in 2023, contributing to the development of local artistic talent and initiatives[5].
